Cardinal Gibbons Jubilee Celebration in Baltimore
The fiftieth anniversary of Cardinal Gibbons as priest and twenty-fifth as cardinal sparked the largest ecclesiastical celebration in American history. Baltimore welcomed visitors from across the nation for a grand Monday procession, with tens of thousands cheering as the cardinal bowed to the crowd from the cathedral portico. The Knights of Columbus presented a gold nugget rosary, which the aged prelate praised as a symbol linking him to God and to the order. He urged Catholics to serve God and country, uphold U.S. institutions, oppose divorce, procreation limits, and race-banning actions, and to keep charity broad while recognizing suffering humanity.
